Twenty-four hours from now our polls will close. Scotland will have decided. In the past, I would have lost sleep over this referendum. Not now ... I am persuaded what to vote, and I pray my vote will be cast for the right reasons. I am applying what I believe to be sanctified common sense, and praying that our land would (to steal Glasgows motto) flourish by the preaching of Gods Word and the praising of His name. These hopes would appear to be crazy hopes, given the political, religious, and moral climate of our land. But God ... God is able. Whatever happens tomorrow, God is on the Throne. The outcome has been in His plan from all eternity. Nations come and nations go, but His kingdom *will* come. Our desires may, or may not, come to fruition, but His will *will* be done. The Gospel may leave the shores of our dear land, like many here would wish for, but one day, the earth *will* be filled with His glory. And so, as I lay the matter before the Lord, I do so knowing that He rules and over-rules in all things. Our nation needs God more than it needs independence. It needs the riches of Christ more than it needs the pound sterling. It needs the Spirit poured out more than it needs oil. Please pray for Scotland, and for the UK, for our leaders and politicians. For the most part they do what is right in their own eyes, and God is in none of their thoughts.
